While WSL  is *absolutely awesome*, it's not enabled by default and is a
Windows 10-only feature.  It would likely also require running Jupyter from
the Linux side of the fence, this means that a Win64 installation of Python
(a likely scenario for many, even if they use WSL, since debugging on say
VSCode off a WSL Python is tricky) wouldn't be supported.

Having out-of-the-box support for terminals on Windows against the Win64
Python would be fantastic.

Cheers,
